Then local officials denied that this act of government censorship was even censorship at all - because the movie is available elsewhere. One official said it wasn't censorship because Moore allegedly "thinks Fidel Castro is a great guy."

This isn't the first major act of censorship against a Moore work somewhere in America: 'Fahrenheit 9/11' was banned in Rapid City, South Dakota, during its theatrical run (though the ban was apparently lifted).

Since today is the 50th anniversary of President Kennedy's inauguration, here's a JFK quote that should be remembered as much as any other: "Libraries should be open to all - except the censor."

I'm still trying to work out an estimate on what Michael Moore's weight is. Do you think he's tipping the scales at around 350 now? Help me out here, Tim, if you know! I bet his blood pressure and cholesterol levels are sky high, too!

The blog ad industry has blackballed me and all of my websites because of my political views, so I can no longer support this site through ads. Accordingly, I have posted my resume for prospective employers to view.
